I couldn’t leave Rome without assisting to an opera, I definitely recommend this show! It was beautiful, well put together in a perfect atmosphere.

Beautiful performance

Thais_H, Oct 2025
It was just a beautiful and very fun performance we really enjoyed. Very organized and professional it was my daughter's 1st time watching a live opera and she loved it Thank you very much

A Great Evening in Rome

Artemis_S, Oct 2025
A must do if you like theater. The theater itself was worth the ticket and the performance was exceptoonal.

Great opera!! Perfecto :):)

Nathaniel_D, May 2025
Fantastic opera and singers aswell as musicians were top class. We enjoyed this as a final evening to end our holiday.

A joyful opera experience in Rome

Ron_S, Nov 2024
Beautiful singing and joyful acting, thoroughly entertaining At times the orchestra overpowers the singers, especially baritone, but otherwise great.

Heartwarming Performance on a Chilly Evening

John_M, Nov 2024
Dress for the performance was less upscale than I expected so don’t let that deter you. Temperature in the church was noticeably chilly - November 14th. Great musical talent by orchestra and artists. Nothing as great as opera in Rome!

Pleasant experience

Daniel_S, Oct 2024
The location and performances were nice but the acoustic was not the best; performer's voices were covered by the instruments and not always well heard.

Bellisima

Sophie_L, Sep 2024
Bellisima. What a beautiful evening of opera and music. It was absolutely brilliant. Great way to experience an opera in a stunning church setting for a great price. Perfecto and Eleganza Just a note. The church may get quite warm in the summer!

Outstanding

James_k, Aug 2024
Very professional, beautifully performed and exceptional selection of opera pieces. Ideal for the opera novice. At times the performance gave you a viserol feeling, being almost moved to tears, yet at other times, light hearted and humerous. Musicians were first class. I would recommend this evening to anyone visiting Rome, who wants to really feel immersed into Italian culture.

Excellent choice for spending 2 hours before or after dinner

Ron_N, Jun 2024
Excellent!! My only suggestion is for the musicians to set slightly higher so people in the back can also view the musicians and the opera singers.

A must do when in Rome

RVivien_U, May 2024
Beautiful church and beautiful music from the most well known italian operas. Professional singers with also a sense of humour. Very pleasant evening!

A must do

Josephine_A, May 2024
Performers were great. It was very entertaining. Loved the experience. Started on time. Get there early, seating was limited even with a ticket.

Lovely and engaging

Kimberly_T, Mar 2024
A lovely and engaging experience. Great for those new to opera or anyone who enjoys a sampling in a unique setting.

Excellent performances in cozy church

Lorre_F, Sep 2023
Intimate acoustical experience for those who love a variety of operatic music from various famous operas. Beautiful little church. Very stuffy in the heat with no way to open windows, so fan noise is an unfortunate practical sound during these warm-weather performances from a trio and a handful of musicians. Bring your handheld fan if you go in warm weather. Wooden Pews have some cushion for this 90-minute show that starts and ends on time, with a 5 minute intermission. The musicians and performers were all wonderful, very close to the audience. This is an easy recommend.

An incredible and romantic musical experience!

Jonathan_A, Aug 2023
What an incredible experience with absolutely fantastic musicians -- I cannot recommend this enough. I saw the Opera Concerto in the VIP seats on a Thursday evening. Everyone had great chemistry, charisma, and stage persona, on top of beautiful musical talent. I found this on the Viator search, and I can't believe I got lucky enough to get VIP seats to a complete hidden gem of an opportunity. The church is beautiful with great acoustics and visuals, and there are good nearby food options for an appetizer and drinks before the show. Go early and grab some champagne at the Irish bar next door, and then settle in for an unexpectedly superior experience where you are right next to the musicians, who play and sing and interact with the crowd. The Church has bathrooms, and there are shops nearby for water or similar if it is hot. The Church stays cool, but they also sell cold water if you attend in the summer time like I did.

This is a must do in Rome

Simone_S, Jun 2023
Incredible experience. The orchestra were perfection and the control and range of the singers was incredible. A truly heart-warming experience.

Amazing Operatic Experience

Alexandra_R, May 2023
This was the most amazing experience I would highly recommend it! The tickets allow you to sit near the front so get there early! This was a wonderful immersive opera experience and the orchestra and singers were outstanding!!

Response from Host, May 2023

Thank you, thank you, thank you!!! We are so happy you appreciate so much our show and our effort to let people enjoy the Opera.

Concerto inside Rome’s first non- Catholic church

David_C, Mar 2023
What a great evening entertainment by a very talented group of musicians and singers. It was a very enjoyable performance in the first non- Catholic Church that was built in Rome, which is beautiful to see inside while enjoying a great concerto and opera singing.

Response from Host, Mar 2023

Thank you so much for your review! We are very happy you have enjoyed the concert and you have appreciated the prestigious location in which it was performed.

a Thums up to the performers.

Rosa_H, Oct 2022

Response from Host, Oct 2022

Thank you very much for your review! We hope to see you again!

Great stuff

Kenneth_H, Oct 2022
Lovely way to interact closely with the singers and musicians during classical opera songs in an extremely enjoyable environment.

Response from Host, Oct 2022

Thank you for your review!! We are very glad you have appreciated our artists and performance. We hope to see you again!

A nice experience

Taylor_W, Sep 2022
We enjoyed the music. There are three main performers and a band, and a brief intermission in the middle. I paid for front row seats and we were placed 3/4 of the way to the back. People frequently getting up in the 1.5 hour experience and phone use can be very distracting as the lights are dimmed. But overall, the music was beautiful and it was a nice experience.

Response from Host, Oct 2022

Thank you very much for your review!! Our goal is to let our guests live an unique experience in Rome. We are very glade you've enjoyed it!

Night of Beautiful Music!

REBECCA_C, Oct 2019
Excellent performance, live musical quintet accompaniment, and the performers were spectacular in their voices and theatricality! Most especially, it was the best opportunity to hear authentic Italian opera in Rome, for the price!

Absolutely mesmerizing

rosamariaantionette, Aug 2019
The church was absolutely beautiful, the selections were mesmerizing and the singers commanded the audience. The only downside was it was extremely hot, with almost no air movement. They did have little fans, however it seemed we were in the row without one. We only stayed half way through the performance as I was sweating through my dress and my partner felt light headed. Regardless would love to come back in the cooler months!

intimate setting with top singers

Denise_M, May 2019
Not to be missed. This presents an opportunity to enjoy the talents of opera singers in a stunning church with a small but immensely talented musicians. Our group of 4 had just arrived into Rome and this was a relaxing opportunity to hear sections of famous and familiar sections of opera. well done!

Opera Arias

Eric_Z, May 2019
We thoroughly enjoyed the evening. The orchestra and singers were first rate. It is really nice to be really close to the performers. St. Paul's is a beautiful venue.

Tres belle expérience mais visibilité réduite

Marouane_S, Nov 2024
Belle Ambiance, Un spectacle captivant avec des performances des musiciens et des chanteurs très à la hauteur, seule bémol c'est la visibilité des musiciens quand on est assis derrière, on ne voit rien, peut être mettre en place une scène pour que tout le monde apprécie le show

Soirée Romaine sur des airs d'opéras

Yann_L, Apr 2024
Une très bonne soirée à Rome ! Le lieu, a savoir une église, nous met tout de suite dans l'ambiance. Nous étions au 1er rang pour être au plus proche de la musique et je conseille cette expérience qui change de l'ordinaire et qui permet de découvrir le chant lyrique au plus proche des chanteurs et des musiciens.

Vale a pena.

maria_r, Aug 2023
Os artistas muito bons além de simpáticos na interação com o público. Espaço bonito porém pouco confortável sem alternativas para diminuir o calor.

Maravillosa experiencia

Santiago_A, Mar 2023
El entorno, la organización, los musicos, los cantantes…. Fue una noche muy recomendable, el sonido… todo!!! No hay ningún pero …. Nos gustó tanto que se nos hizo cortísimo!! Sin duda recomendable y volveremos

Ópera em roma
